Just a quick post this one. I really desperatly need a job. Anything considered but must be local. Applied for army just need something to be doing until i hear back from them. So if anyone can recommend anywhere that has jobs or any agencys worth checking out please let me know. Thanks. Ps dont say check Jobcentre website as i have already been on and there is nothing suitable.

i work for driver hire agency abbey street, they are good to work for. you can choose how many days a week you work and is good for temp work.

Never actually tried there. Do you need to have driving licence to work there or do they have non-driving jobs aswell? Thanks.

bobthedj · 01-01-2008, 14:05

its not just driving work, factory,second man on van, alsorts worth a try i have been there four months and i lik it.

Ok thanks mate. Never bothered with them before because i just assumed it was all driving work (which i would love to do but dont have my licence yet). Thanks again mate. Will go in and see what they can do for me.

what happened to the cake shop speedy?

Decided it wasnt what i wanted to do, plus i wasnt making enough money working part time. So when i got offered a 40hour a week warehouse job i took it (was told it was temporary for 2months, ending up being just 2days). So i applied for the army last week and just need something to see me over financially until i hear back from the army.
